2026 CFDV Annual Symposium

General Poster Session & Student and Young Professionals Poster Competition

Poster Session Guidelines

Posters may encompass work that is completed or in progress. Separation science need not be the primary focus of the project, but relevance to those in the practicing chromatography community should be evident. For example, chromatography could be an important component in achieving the project's main objective, or the project could advance ancillary technologies, techniques or concepts. Posters should be created in landscape view with dimensions of approximately 30 inches high x 40 inches wide, to be displayed on typical poster boards.

Student and Young Professionals Poster Competition

Each Spring, since times long past, the Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley has invited young scientists to showcase their work at our annual symposium. Successful presenters have come from a surprising range of backgrounds and have typically demonstrated a high degree of passion, creativity and skill in their work. The symposium brings together leading experts in separation sciences from academia and industry, so the poster session provides presenters with a great opportunity to discuss their research and applications, get feedback on their projects, develop important career skills and build their professional network. 

The poster competition is open to all:

Undergraduate students

Graduate students

Postdoctoral research fellows

Professionals with ≤ 5 years of experience

A total of $500 in awards will be granted to presenters for the top three outstanding projects!

The Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley welcomes you and sincerely appreciates your participation in the 2026 Poster Session and Student and Early Career Professional Competition. It is important to CFDV that it's a positive, encouraging and valuable experience for our poster session participants.
